Hello,
I'm about to purchase a 1954 Farmall Super-C from another contribuiter to this discussion group. It's got a 2pt FastHitch and a wide front end.

I see, both here and on other sites, that StanHoist made loaders for some of the IH/Farmall Line, though i've had no luck locating one that says, specifically, that it'll work for a 1954 Farmall Super C.

We had a Massey 135 here for a while, which had a front loader, and it proved very useful, which is why i'm investigating the existance and usefulness of a Super C front end loader.

Thanks for the replies!

I have 2 of them on Super C's there pretty handy the IH one can only be used with the narrow front. They can lift about 800 lbs or soo deping on how you hook. I mostly use ours for pushing some snow and or brush. For larger jobs i use a H with a loader but its a real bear to steer with no Power steeing. The only thing to mention is that the SC is frame less soo becarful how much weight you pick up or if you go over rough ground with it, Iv never seen but have heard that they can snap in half when over loaded too much :(


here is pic of my 53 Super C with the IH loader

Andrew,
Nice '53!

As I said, I have the wide front end, so ideally, the loader would have to work with that. I don't think I'd be using the loader for much heavy lifting. The Super-C I'm getting comes with a snowblade (7' front/mid mount, I believe), so I'll be using that for pushing snow most of the time. I need to locate a mower, or modify the SuperA mower, but thats another discussion.

I only really want the front loader to move around some pieces of wood (stovelengths, stuff I haven't split yet, etc)...perhaps a shovel load of sand or rock, but nothing too heavy, and certainly not at speed over rough ground. The tractor is more than twice my age!

That Freeman 2000 loader looks interesting, though...If they're still around, I imagine they're both expensive, and not a bolt-on modification. Any more information on them? A google search turned up very little...

Lots of Freeman loaders around. I see a couple at every consignment sale around here. Usually bring around 100 dollars. With torch and welder it is not much trouble to rig them up. You can also make a frame for your tractor from 1/2 inch plate steel. Mount to the pad on bell housing and front mounting pads. That old tractor will do lots of work, and will out last you if taken reasonable care of.

Several companies made loaders to fit SC. I knew an old man who dug a basement for his new house with a SC and big box of dynomite. He is dead, but the SC is still going, and still has the loader. IH made a loader to fit them as well. Have also seen a couple rigged up with Freeman 2000 loaders on them.
